Chapter 206 Six-Star Hunter, Lone Hunter Oscuro

After the hypnotic effect wore off, Xilin vividly remembered the two voices. 97.97.

One of the voices hypnotized Xilin. Although he didn't know which side the person who had just flown over belonged to, "Mist" or "Unforgiven," it now seemed that the voice that hypnotized Xilin was not that person. As long as Xilin heard that voice, he could tell that the voice had not interfered with his consciousness, which meant that someone else was hypnotizing him.

Whether they were from "Fog" or "No Mercy," they brazenly zipped around in the neutral zone, and no one else paid them any attention. It was truly dangerous, considering they were two top-tier assassin organizations.

This is military territory, and the satellite surveillance is all in the military's hands. Xilin doesn't dare let Xiying invade now, because there are too many experts here. Once they are caught, he and Xiying will be finished.

After clearing his head, Xilin took off and flew back; there were some things he needed to settle quickly.

Just as Nata said, as the summit of the leaders drew closer, more people arrived one after another. Kari and his group were the first batch of reinforcements from the vanguard, followed by the second batch to replace the first. However, only a portion of each squadron came; not all of them. They took turns on duty, allowing everyone to see the great planet and familiarize themselves with the environment and terrain.

After Kari and Xiaoshang completed their rotation, the Seventh Fleet took over. Kari and the others also had to return to the small planet in the satellite belt; unlike Xilin, they couldn't stay here indefinitely with the main team. However, Xiying didn't leave; she remained in Xilin's room, keeping an eye on things unnoticed.

When Kari and the others left, Xilin had a talk with them, telling them to go back and train as soon as possible.

"Vice Captain, is there any work to be done?" Kari asked, rubbing his hands together eagerly.

"It's always good to be prepared." Xilin didn't say it directly, but that was enough.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll convey the vice-captain's message when I get back. Even that chubby white guy will be keeping a close eye on things!"

"Make sure others pay more attention."

In truth, Xilin knew that the situation was far more complex and serious than Nata had described. If it were merely a struggle for resources, that would be manageable, but what if it concerned Olliro?

The conflict fifty years ago involved only one person and several parties. Now they are all gathered here. Once the connection between the Ollios is detected, even if a war doesn't break out now, the ensuing war after they leave this planet will be far more devastating than the one fifty years ago.

After Kari and the others left, Xilin felt restless and couldn't calm down. He didn't know if it was because of the voice he had heard earlier or something else, but he just couldn't settle down. He had originally planned to study the parasite samples that Nata had given him, but he was not in a good state and had no interest in studying the samples. He just kept staring blankly. In the end, Xilin wandered around alone on his flying skates.

Within the military-designated assembly area, small, fully automated service points were set up at intervals, providing food, basic necessities, and some light entertainment. Young people from different factions would often gather there with old friends they hadn't seen in years, so each service point was always quite crowded. 97.

Xilin bought a glass of iced juice at a small drink shop, but didn't order any alcohol. He was already mentally foggy and irritable; drinking would only make him more confused. He needed to calm down and think things through. 97.

It was noisy around, but there were still some empty seats around the drink shop, all outdoors. Xilin sat down at a small table for two, drinking juice under a sunshade and watching people come and go.

The young people, in groups of three or five, wearing badges of different factions, pushed and laughed. Xilin also saw a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old with a butterfly tattooed on her arm. Unlike the ghost butterfly pattern on Ghost Butterfly Seventeen, the butterfly tattoo on her arm was a swallowtail butterfly. The patterns on the swallowtail butterfly's wings looked like a tiger. Xilin heard her companions call her "Tiger Phoenix".

The person beneath the blue swallowtail butterfly.

Qingfeng handed the juice to Hufeng, noticed Xilin's gaze, looked back, then looked away again, and left with Hufeng.

After the two people with the blue butterfly left, Xilin looked around again.

The cool temperature of the juice didn't calm Xilin down, not because of the noise around her, but because she had a feeling that something was about to happen.

Xilin tapped his fingers unconsciously on the juice glass, then suddenly froze, and the hairs on his body almost stood on end.

Xilin saw a person, an ordinary-looking person, whose appearance and clothing were unremarkable. However, it was this person who made Xilin feel as if he were surrounded by ice spikes, and that the slightest movement would result in being pierced to pieces.

Yes, that's what's causing my irritability.

  

After the initial shock, Xilin's anxiety subsided.

The person walked over step by step, showing nothing special, with slow and steady strides. Through those pupils, Xilin couldn't discern any hidden emotions. At first glance, there seemed to be a casual smile, but upon closer inspection, nothing could be seen.

Xilin knew all too well what such a look meant: either a killer or a cold-blooded person who was almost cruel and numb.

Those not being stared at by that person showed no unusual reaction, continuing to drink and chat, completely unaware that a killing machine was approaching. Only when their eyes met did they realize how special and terrifying this person was.

Xilin felt as if he were in a frozen wasteland, his body chilled to the bone. He stood there motionless, his body tense, ready to fight to the death at any moment. Although Xilin knew that his chances of dying in this fight were over 70%, he had no way out when facing this person.

Xilin was even careful with every breath, keeping his condition at its peak. However, under that gaze, Xilin was quite clear about the vast difference in strength between the two.

Weapons, including guns and cannons, were hidden inside Xilin's scroll-patterned ring. However, against this person, the man would be killed before he could even draw his weapon. Therefore, Xilin focused more of his attention on this individual while simultaneously considering his escape route.

Strangely, the man suddenly stopped five meters in front of Xilin, his eyes showing a hint of surprise. He then smiled at Xilin, a smile that sent a chill down Xilin's spine. Fortunately, the man looked away and turned to walk in another direction.

It wasn't until that figure had long since disappeared into the crowd that Xilin slowly relaxed his tense muscles, his back covered in cold sweat. 97. The sip of juice he took was truly refreshingly cool.

Do you know who he is?

The sudden sound startled Xilin. Regaining his senses, he looked behind him. He hadn't felt anyone behind him at all. But perhaps it was precisely because of this person that the other person hadn't attacked? Xilin was certain that person's target was him, and they had only changed their mind afterward. 97.

"Hunter Knife Gada? You were also invited to the summit?" Xilin asked.

The person standing behind Xilin was indeed Hunter Jiada, who still maintained the harmless demeanor of an academic.

Gada sat down opposite Xilin with a glass of juice and smiled, "Yeah, but I'm not like you guys who are always on the move. I'm a lone wolf after all. They just asked me to come here to sign a contract for peace of mind. I don't have a say in dividing up territories or anything like that, but I will get a contract fee."

After thinking about it, Xilin understood what was going on, and once he figured it out, the problem returned to its original track.

"Who was that person just now?"

"That guy..." Gada shook the juice in his glass. "Back then, he beat me half to death and I spent more than ten years in prison recovering."

Xilin almost spat out his juice. It turned out that Gada was in prison in Sector S after being injured, but it was indeed a good place to recuperate, at least the secrecy was good.

However, the person who could wound Gadda with his hunting knife...

Xilin opened his eyes wide, made a six with his fingers, and then a one.

"Yes, he is the Lone Hunter, one of the six stars."

It's definitely at that level.

"Among the six hunters, besides the four major ones, you know there are two lone hunters, right?"

Xilin nodded. "But we don't know who they are."

Indeed, given Xilin's current status and level, he wouldn't be able to meet those at the very top. But what about that person just now? Xilin didn't believe he had offended him.

"Of the two lone hunters, one is alright. She is the only female among the six hunters, Sin Prisa. She is rather lazy and unconventional, and acts entirely on her whims, but at least she is not bloodthirsty. And strictly speaking, she is not a lone hunter."

Xilin raised an eyebrow; he really hadn't expected there to be a woman among the Six Star Hunters.

"As for the other person, that's the one you just met. Oskuro, that guy kills as easily as eating, and he's also known as the most solitary and ruthless lone hunter. The people he knows are all people he's killed; he only acknowledges those who survive his attacks. As for the people he's determined to eliminate, apart from a few others of similar status and those from the Heavenly Decree, none of them are still alive."

"and you……"

"He only acted on a whim back then, and hadn't yet reached the point of being determined to kill you. But," Gada looked at Sirin, "not to discourage you, but based on my understanding of Oskuro, that guy is definitely eyeing you."

Xilin caught another meaning in Gada's words: "Just keeping an eye on them? No intention of killing them?"

"That depends on what you have that would attract his attention. He's the kind of person who won't bother with anything unless there's a direct benefit to it. Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that he might kill someone for fun on a whim."

Fragments of Olliro's star map!

However, I didn't feel any resonance or mutual attraction between the Olliro star charts just now.

Gada saw through Xilin's thoughts and said, "There's no need to doubt it. It's exactly what you're thinking. Some people have ways to hide that resonance and attraction."

Xilin frowned. In that case, the targets were actually just a certain group of people who couldn't hide that resonance and attraction, and he was one of them.

"Want to know how to hide them?" Gada asked with a faint smile.

Xilin looked at Gada, whose smile seemed cunning no matter how you looked at it.

"Senior, please tell me what you need."

"I enjoy talking to intelligent people." Gada finished his juice but still held the empty glass in his hand, playing with it. "I can tell you how to hide it, or I can give you a fragment of the Oriello Star Map. Of course, this fragment isn't the kind you want, but it's the kind that the Andreira family needs."

Xilin lowered his eyes and remained silent, waiting quietly for Gada to continue.

Seeing that Xilin didn't react, Gada continued, "The conditions aren't really anything. When you collect all the star maps of Olliro and activate Olliro, I'll accompany you. Of course, I promise I won't interfere with your plans, and I might even be able to help you."

"Senior Gada, let's not even talk about whether I can get it or not, but how do you know what kind of one I have? Of the five Orillos, at most two are likely to be acquired. After excluding the one from the Andreira family, we don't even know what the other two are."

"I know. I know which one you have, and the people searching for this one are not ones you can resist. 'Death,' Oscuro, are both waiting for the one you have."

Xilin was shocked; there was even a "Grim Reaper"! However, according to Gada, he didn't know that he actually had two pieces in his hand.

"What is this in my hand?" Xilin asked.

"The one that represents new life in the creation myth is called 'Shortcut'."

"shortcut?"

"I once heard a guy from 'Death' say that 'Shortcut' might be a space jump point, a jump point outside the Covenant's star system."

This news undoubtedly surprised Xilin. Due to the unusual cosmic environment around the star system where the Star Alliance is located, the Star Alliance Research Institute had tried some space technologies but they were ineffective. Therefore, no one from outside the star system has entered the Star Alliance star system, and no one from the Star Alliance has left. Even the four major members have only been able to leave the area around the star system a little bit, but they cannot completely leave.

If the military finds out about this, even Knight and Mo Heng won't be able to protect Xilin. But should we hand this over to the Vanguard now?

"I advise you to keep it for yourself for now. The Vanguard is not a monolithic entity. Unless the Vanguard himself makes a promise, don't take out the fragment lightly."

Xilin agreed with Gada, so the best time would be to join the main team. However, before joining the main team, "How can I guarantee I won't be wiped out by the 'Grim Reaper's' and Oscuro?"

"Don't worry about the 'Grim Reaper's' people. Their main goal now is not to seize the fragment, but to find it. Your most important task now is to escape Oscuro's killing blade."

"Easier said than done. How am I supposed to escape? Escape to Commander Jifeng?"

"If you escape to Extreme Front now, it will undoubtedly lead to a direct confrontation between Extreme Front and Oskuro. Given the current situation, more than half of the Vanguard members will die in a direct confrontation."

Xilin fell silent.

"Don't worry, I've divined for you. There will be hardships, but you won't die in the end."

Xilin was so angry at this that he laughed. "I didn't expect that Senior Gada would believe in this."

Gada simply said, "There are some things you just have to believe."

Some things you just have to believe... Sirin thought of Tico's rabbit.

"Alright, now I'll tell you the method. As for the people on 'Death's' side, I'll talk to them, and they won't touch you for the time being."

Gada and Xilin sat there chatting, but no one around them could hear them at all, even though there was a bug next to them that couldn't hear a word.

An hour later, Xilin returned to the Vanguard area exhausted from riding the zipline, and fell asleep as soon as he got back.

The method Gada described was too mentally taxing; practicing it alone consumed more than half of it. However, although this method was very mentally taxing, once one became proficient, Xilin could afford to spend that much mental energy.

No wonder those who manage to obtain the fragments without anyone knowing are all top-tier individuals. Such spiritual power...

Ordinary people with Grade A genes absolutely cannot afford to wait this long.

"Hey, Xilin, what's wrong with you?" The gray cat jumped from the cat bed made of fish cakes onto Xilin.

"Get down here right now, you smell like fish."

The gray cat stomped on Xilin a few times in a fit of rage before jumping back into its den. Sure enough, it was so nice to be in a den full of dried fish cakes; it had sweet dreams.

Xilin lay on the bed watching the gray cat burrow back into the fish cake, and began to ponder a plan. The gray cat would obviously be a valuable ally in dealing with Oskuro, but whether it would actually be of any use was another matter.

Just as Gada had said, the "Grim Reaper" did not come looking for Sirin, and the summit of the leaders began.

After five days of meetings, the summit concluded. Apart from the summit participants, no one else knew how many people attended or what the process was like, but the division of the Z-sector had been made public.

I don't know if there are internal rules, but the area that Extreme Edge was allocated just happened to include the planet where they mine special energy ores. Overall, the area that Extreme Edge was allocated was pretty good.

Of course, some people are satisfied while others are not. As for what happens to those who are dissatisfied, the military will not care. It's a matter of personal luck. They have to accept their dissatisfaction. If they want to fight, so be it, as long as they don't break the bottom line rules.

After leaving the large planet and returning to a small planet in the satellite belt, Xilin and the others packed up before heading to their assigned areas.

With the main fleet's starships leading the charge, followed by the various sub-fleets, the formation looked incredibly imposing, far more powerful than when the Sixth Sub-Fleet operated alone. This kind of fleet, this kind of lineup, truly represents one of the Four Great Fleets.

Meanwhile, on an unremarkable starship, Gadda sat inside talking to the person opposite him.

"Can that kid really succeed?" asked the person sitting opposite Gada.
